They rally 'round the family with a pocket full of cards

Here’s the developer update pics. On board, in hand, and Starbrand revealing for contrast

Lost to a bot bc they had built up the right lane and it revealed as a danger room and it kept killing only my cards.
I do think if you can lose to a player who isn’t playing toward the win objectives bc of RNG you might have too much RNG.

Ooh going to have to go through my old What-If comics. Baby-eating demon possessed Wolverine? Head of shield Wolverine? Lord of Vampires Wolverine?

Yes if you aren’t planning on doing it in your main. Satisfy that itch

Sounds pretty definitive. Wonder why they don't show up as in a series then?

Good choice!
Wish more content creators would come over fully but I do understand the "it's my livelihood" aspect of it. Just hope they are evaluating the move often.

Hardest part for me is deciding on that t5 play. Big Gamora to ensure a lane win or big Vision to use from then on.

Yeah. Gonna play it hard and see where I am come Tuesday. One more card is one more card. Banner was the only truly useless one

It's like 2 hours for 2 hundred or so, right? I think that's where we settled in so you can finish it. Hell I need 1400 and I could probably finish it if I barely play anything else until it's over. Is that worth pulling Thunderbolt Ross?

I was prepared mentally and view it as just a free card toward completion. Disappointing for sure, but no anger her.

That's probably fair though one thing to note - Laufey, Uncle Ben and Gorgon don't have series attached to them. It's completely possible Laufey (even Gorgon) ends up as a s5 and in that case he's a HUGE deal as a portal pull. Cassie Nova is still s5.

Oh I forgot Ares in that OOPS list.

The build still exists because of their 4/10 obsession and Zabu, but I think it hits pause until Starbrand comes out who will fill the 10 on t3 and 10 to pair with a 3-Cost Skaar on t6. This is now necessary for Surtur/Skaar

Really though it's funny. By creating Sam Cap they made Cull a frictionless 4/10. Because of that they can't have any frictionless 5/10s that do ANYTHING even though it should be fine cost to power wise. The best they can do is keep the just 10 power of Sasquatch.

They created a design limitation for themselves. So how to back out of it? These OTA changes
No more "free" Skaar just for putting down 10s t3 t4 t5 now that we made a 10 on t3 available.
No more "free" Skaar by setting up a 10+ Surtur by putting down 10s on t4 t5.

But this creates a problem where every 10 point card under 5-Cost (maybe even under 6) can't be good to play as-is
And then what happened?
1) They made a card in Sam Cap that makes Cull basically a "frictionless" 4/10
2) Here comes a 3/10 in Starbrand
3) Here comes a 5/10 or 13 in Agamotto
Oops!

Yeah this is where I am. A random s5 pull is better value than these pulls is better value than a random s4 pull.
That being said I felt Laufey was good enough to go for first - better than a lot of the s5 cards I could get. But I have him now so time to roll the dice.
Thanks for the backup!

Alioth and Gwenpool text changes. My guess is - they won't effect the spells. But aren't there other cards that alos need this update? Any buff card?

A new toy! I was completely right they missed the mark with Joaquin and even said he might go to 3/6. 2/2 is interesting and I think they are right here it enables more surprise moves. Joaquin with cards on t3 or t4. Will try

High Evo 4/7
Yawn. When Evo ruled he was basically unplayable. They tried to make him ok, didn't work. Now he's actually good. Still not going to do it. They need to re-power that deck, simple as that.
But outside the archtype you might see him in small packages with like A-Bomb and Cyclops

White Queen now a 3/4.
Sorry it's probably not going to make ESON decks. Needed a rebuild bc even in the past it wasn't the ability it was the 4/6 you wanted. She needs premium stats to play as-is.
Lizard 2/6 - purely a set-up for a Starbrand Sauron deck but also LONG overdue.

Two minor buffs. WWBN and Annihilus gain a point.
Well they gave me something. Annihilus is good as my "Secret Invasion" deck proved. Is it because people don't expect it and this will ruin that? Maybe. I'll find out though
WWBN could use a point. Tough card bc you CAN'T make it +3 even at 3/0.

Aero back to 5/9. This is really odd reading it. Basically saying "Hey Aero was a good 5/10. Can't have that!" while good cards that enable other things abound.
Again my guess is they are worried about Starbrand into X into X. You know that solution? MAKE STARBRAND A 3/9!

Skaar 7/12. YES you could drop 20 power on the last turn. THAT IS THE DAMN POINT OF THE DECK.
OK but what this really is is Starbrand balancing. You can still drop 20 but it'll require a t3 10 pt drop or Starbrand on t6. Make broken cards fix unbroken ones to compensate

You'd have to assume but then again I haven't really read comics for 20 years and turns out they never stopped creating characters

My guess : Their expectations are a 50% win rate and I'd assume like 10-12 charms per games so they'd expect you to get 50-60 charms on average for 3 scrolls. This would create a loop where you'd never have to buy in with gold.

Joaquin Torres 3/5 maybe even 3/6!

Adds an interesting play dynamic, not just RNG elements.

For the most part it's better unless you cared about just ink or gold (not as part of a god split in particular)
And I think there were a good deal of ink fans out there. They seemed receptive to changing rates. Maybe if you get an army of ink fans together and start complaining loudly

One of the few I need that's coming out in a cache so guaranteed to be the first pull of a random s4/s5 if I get there
comment in response to

Scorn is very good in general but coming up in a cache at the end of next month. If you can wait I would and get the two-fer.

He's the platonic ideal of a give away card. Better than the meme card with extremely limited use, Uncle Ben. Not as good as the actual solid affliction card, Laufey.
A card you should have but also not good enough to make you go for, rather than just wait on when you happen to get it
comment in response to

Anyway - just a solid 2-Cost card whose overall use will be entirely meta dependent but if you hate certain matchups like Arishem you now have a card to slot in to help beat those if you want.
Also you can do this
